Before the second reading, changes will be made so that elite doctors, who are also administrators, enter into an additional contract for the exercise of their profession.

Shthe heads of the hospitals will no longer be able to treat, they will only be administrators. This became clear after the deputies approved yesterday in first reading the amendments to the Law of Medical Establishments.

According to the texts, people who work by trade or for employment cannot be managers or members of a board of directors, a board of directors or be managers of a state or municipal hospital.

The proposals aim to limit the participation of people from the medical institution in the boards of directors, warned the social deputy Prof. Georgi Mihailov.

Heads of hospitals can still teach at universities, because according to the academic staff development law, associate professor and professor positions are filled through an employment contract.

According to 24 Chasa, however, between the two readings of the law, changes will be made to another law, which will allow directors and members of the board of directors to conclude an additional employment contract to practice their medical profession.

“The bill proposed by Dr. Daritkova is absolutely appropriate and will allow hospital directors to teach. I see no problem in practicing their profession within reason while running the hospital. The law allows the conclusion of a civil contract, and it is not said that it should be done for a fee: the director’s salary is not small.

Each one chooses what they want to dedicate to in the end. In general, I express my reservations about the mechanical equating of hospitals with companies. It seems to me that it would be convenient for the Minister of Health to have a decisive voice in defining their leadership. Ultimately, he is expected to be responsible for the system, he must have the tools to manage it. Including personnel actions. This was commented on by Dr. Stefan Konstantinov, USBAL’s director of oncology, who is a renowned obstetrician-gynecologist.
